If I have to call Bank of America...

I will just go to Bank of America and tell them that I'm hearing impaired and get my problem solved from there.

Will that minimize vishing attacks if I go to Bank of America, provided if the representitives does not know about the phone number that they asked me to dial?

Also, when it comes to telemarketing, I'll just hang up due to my hearing impairment. I would use a text-based Internet relay service, but still, I don't feel like doing this

Will that make it harder for criminals to do vishing attacks against me, provided that I'm hearing impaired and I don't give out all of my information?
